Is there an easy way to find out if there are still some a.out libs or
binaries on a machine that has been 'transitioned' ?  One of my SMP
machines during heavy load is rebooting without any warning.  In other
words, is there a reccomended audit I could do on the machine to make sure
the a.out-elf transition was done properly ?  It started out as a 3.0
STABLE box from Dec.
